    @sonics1993 now that we're a month past signing day, any interesting stories/rumors from the 2020 recruiting trail that you can now share? Who did we come really close to getting? Did Gee Sr really punch a high school coach? Did Bothelo actually consider flipping to us? Anything?

    Pretty dull recruiting class as far as stories go since the class was wrapped up by summers end. Only juicy story was Oregon and Smalls and that has already been spoken about. As far as Botelho goes, twice a flight was booked for him to visit only for him to cancel at the last minute. Going 7-5 certainly didn't help but ND did a good job of pressuring him to commit and then not visit. But if we would have gotten him on campus, it would have been a wrap.
    Didn’t love him or Herbig, but still wish he would have made it to campus and committed. Another quality LB to throw in wouldn’t have hurt.

    What's the feeling on Bruener? I feel like when he's a RS SO we are gonna be glad we grabbed him. Is a OLB or what?

    He's an inside LB. I think he has the tools. He's pretty fast and tackles well. I doubt we'll have to wait till his third year to decide we hate him though.

    Think he was a reach along with McDonald but hope i'm wrong.

    How low does Jimmy's schlong hang relative to Pete's when it comes to recruiting so far? To the knees? Scraping the floor? Coiled on the floor and spitting like a cobra?

    Got to see how he closes before I can compare. Pete was a proven closer, Jimmy has yet to prove that.

    No. He’s an underdeveloped kid that will get much bigger and already has the athleticism. He’s probably a smart player too. Tons of tackles in high school, albeit on a terrible team.

    He will be better than both the plodding Hawaii LB’s. Take the screenshots.

    Who is the other Hawaii lb other than Ah Choo?

    I believe he was referring to Hawaii LB prospects UW missed on. Botelho and Herbig.

    Roadie-San has pretty good track record

    Not Ah You. Herbig and Botelho were who I was talking about. Ah You didn’t run that fast, but he’s not a plodder at all.

    After watching Botelho again, it’s hard to say. Botelho is a better prospect outside. I don’t like him in the middle much.

    I know Bruener's dad was huge but Carson's frame wasn't that big last time I saw. I hope he doesn't struggle to put weight on.

    Best case scenario is he grows 2" and moves to TE

    Botelho is a dude. A far better player than Bruener and McDonald, now and in the future.
    Not sure about the future, but Botelho is better now. I agree with that. Botelho should be a pass rushing OLB. Don’t see it at ILB. His best skill is getting after the QB.

    For all those worried about Bruner’s size, I’m hoping he’s just somewhat of a late bloomer. If he’s 205 now, he should be able to get to around 225, which is big enough to play ILB in the PAC-12. He looks young. Like mentioned above, dad is huge. I think he’s going to be pretty good.
